FAQs

Why should I use RyansSearch.com opposed to just doing a Google Search?

Today’s consumers are “search-a-holics,” but their search behaviors aren’t one-size-fits-all. According to a research study conducted by IDC, 36% of local searchers start their journey on a search engine while more than 50% begin elsewhere online (customer reviews, online directories, etc.) But regardless of where they start, it goes without saying that people are searching- and a lot! – Local Search Association (2016).

What makes RyansSearch.com different from other online directories?

RyansSearch.com is an exclusive website featuring and promoting a maximum of seven companies per industry. Based on independent research of consumer buying habits, most consumers’ decision-making about a company they are seeking to fulfill a need is determined after they have reviewed between three to seven companies.

Secondly, RyansSearch.com is the only site that post reviews from other Internet directory sites, such as Angies List, on their own site. Why? Our focus is to promote the companies that have been awarded to be on RyansSearch.com. Therefore, wherever a positive review has been posted, consumers will obtain all the information they need from one source, RyansSearch.com. We will decrease the need of consumers searching from multiple websites during their decision-making process for a trustworthy service provider.Our research experts have solved this problem by selecting a maximum of seven A-rated companies per industry.
